How we handle grease trap cleaning in Fullerton
Fats, oils and grease are the main cause of blocked kitchen drains. Further on, grease can build into fatbergs in the sewer. A grease trap that is emptied and cleaned regularly holds them back. If you have a full, neglected grease trap and a routine grease trap service, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Fullerton, the kitchens that need a deep clean are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still needs the occasional deep clean and its grease trap kept clear.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Fullerton kitchens: local notes
Look up Fullerton on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens across Fullerton and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). A grease trap in kitchens like these fills steadily and needs emptying before it overflows. Environmental health officers from Test Valley council inspect food businesses in Fullerton. Walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of what they look at. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Andover War Memorial Hospital about 4.6 miles north, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out. Hall and church kitchens, near Church of St Nicholas or anywhere around Fullerton, are used by many hands, and periodic deep cleans and grease trap visits keep them in order.
Fullerton is about 4 miles south of Andover, in Hampshire. Whatever kind of site you run in Fullerton, grease trap cleaning is something we can help with.

What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
When it’s something else
Not every problem is solved by grease trap cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Blockages further down the drainage network
- Grease deep in the drains, which needs jetting by a drainage contractor
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- School and care home kitchens
- Restaurants and takeaways
- Kitchen waste pipes
- Pot wash sinks
- Inline grease traps
- Under-sink grease traps
Why deal with it now?
A full grease trap lets grease through to the drains. It hardens on the pipe walls, until the drain blocks. Cleaning the trap regularly is far easier than clearing a blocked drain. If the system at a site near Fullerton fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What happens on the day
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Fullerton can be planned properly.
- We locate the trap and check how it’s fitted.
- Sinks feeding the trap are taken out of use.
- We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
- We clean every part of the inside.
- The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Part by part
Inline grease traps
Inline traps are fitted into the drain line. They hold more than under-sink units but still need regular emptying.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Kitchens with fixed mealtimes build up grease more predictably. Planned cleaning fits their routine.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Fullerton
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Your questions about grease trap cleaning in Fullerton
Can you get to a site in Fullerton?
Yes, Fullerton is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Fullerton?
That’s Test Valley council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Fullerton. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Get food waste into the bin, not the sink
- Keep the grease trap on a regular cleaning schedule
- Do not store things on top of the trap
Keep used oil out of the drains and the trap won’t fill as quickly. It makes a real difference.
If the kitchen has got busier, the trap fills faster. Booking cleans more often stops it overflowing.
